craft fair

Soaps, sweets and sweatshirts…BBQ sauce, blankets and baked goods…maple syrup and metalwork…knitted scarves and caps…heaps of holiday décor.

The 30 vendors at the fifth annual FFA craft fair in the new gym on Saturday morning had an assortment of goods to choose from.

A Christmas bonus for attendees, in the commons, Lacee Johnson’s Clipper Rising Voices, a select choir of third through fifth graders, held its first ever dedicated concert. Later, in the gym, Erik Hermanson’s Holiday Jazz gave its third performance of the year.

In the commons, the concession stand was open, and there were activities there for kids.

Money raised from craft fair will fund FFA trips and contests.
